Digital art created by pixeling, using methods working with indexed color palette. The color count and often the color space is limited, occasionally as a result of certain characteristics of targeted retro machines. Some of these are intended to be used in retro-style games.

Title screen plan for the Cheetaan Legacy game. It might need some color adjustments (There is a dark red color which might be invisible on some displays) which I might do at a later time editing this graphics further. The problem is mainly that my monitor has a really weird color space at darker color levels.

An image from (or for) the planned game Cheetaan Legacy, portraying one of the races (Shiriat / Cyat) at one of their typical environments. The image itself is not bad, but a little sloppy. For one it is that for a comment from a friend I started to study a little more how railway equipment looks from different angles, and I got the bogies wrong, just too flat. The other part is that probably I could do much better now at the portraits. So this is rather just an experiment which in this form will never make into the game (If ever).

Two distinct Interlace HI-Res + Sprite images for the Commodore 64. I created these using a small self-made pixel pusher software, also implementing a rudimentary display routine for them for the real C64 (Nothing of much interest, I only used a single 16Kb page for the VIC, half the screen left flickering like hell, but that proved it!).

This old panther-alike was intended to be the main character portrait of the game idea which later grew to be Cheetaan Legacy (Which is still in a galaxy far-far away...). Medicore color selection with rather medicore art quality, later I got to improve in both aspects.

A pixel work which turned out quite good considering it's age. As I remember I did this on my old 25MHz 4.86, but sure that in Deluxe Paint II (DOS). The anatomy of the cheetah is not entirely right, but in overall the image works.

Some old EGA line-arts drawn with Deluxe Paint II, probably from 2005, probably even older. The large cheetah framing all was used as a part of a site design back then, I don't know if it was ever made into an actual design though (If it were, sure it was a HTML4 table mess).

Spinosaurus Aegyptiacus reconstruction (at least an attempt at it), as of 2015 knowledge: the Ibrahim et al. papers from 2014 and the later adjustments on the hindlimb size, discarding the quadrupedal stance. Fleshed out according to some own ideas as well as various existing knowledge on the animal.

Yet another wyvern design aiming for realistic capability of flight and a dragonlike appearance, a controversial beauty. She has no direct relation to the gold wyverns of Outbreak to the Sky, although those were one inspiration source to design her.

We are European. A quick image sketched up portraying myself in the protests of April, 2017, Hungary, protesting against the actions of the government leading Hungary out of Europe and humanity itself, back to the dark ages. An now I have a flag of the European Union!

Just an another large European Green Lizard shot, this time exploiting the capabilities of my old Olympus C2500L camera even better than in the past year - at least I believe so. This one did not even need post-processing at the colour department, it just came out all right. It was one of the good results of a trip targeting especially these lizards.

Tanis exploring some burnt down ruins. They could be Tikireni and Xitka from New World 2648, blue eyes for a Xi are not common. The Xi is the dark wolf-like creature, the Nir is the cheetah. The background is an own photograph, taken of a small burnt-down and abandoned summerhouse.

Pencil sketch on some A/5 leaf. Well, this is really on "some" A/5 leaf, although this is not as bad as some other such old pieces of mine. This was just on some thin paper with a triangle grid on it's back which would show through no matter what arcane thing you do with your scanner.

Signal from the Sky album cover art, for David K. Newton. This is my first real commission work, started from his sketches, and dreamed further after his tunes then upcoming under the title Signal from the Sky!

Huh, is this a six limb dragon? Which flies? Just continuing my adventure contriving big flying beasts who hopefully have some chance against fantasy creatures' most dire enemy: real world physics. He doesn't have six limbs, rather he is a derivative of the Draco Lizard, which evolved gliding by modified ribs.

An European Green Lizard in the hills above Budapest, Hungary. Spring came, so the insects started crawling out from their winter hideouts, and then that's the start of the game for the lower hunters of the food chain, the lizards. It took a while to get this one, about a hour of waiting the thing to come off from a thorny bush where it hid, but it did worth!

Website design for my content used in 2011 and early 2012. This was a dynamic width design created to work with Drupal 7 (The screenshot shows just the static part before implementing it as a Drupal theme). I had two mayor problems with this design: For one it took not too much to feel it just too egocentric for that cheetah with a beard (I have beard), and for one technically the dynamic width solution had some important problems.

Twenty-six forty-eight... Space is opened wide, our ships reach towards planets of distant solar systems, man is colonizing near and far. The same time Earth is struggling by overpopulation, severe social, political and economic problems. Many who can afford, embark on the journey, a perilous journey towards the unknown... A sci-fi novel set in the distant future, telling the story of a young man, who tries to find his place in this strange new world (currently Hungarian only).

The summer started with a beautiful passing storm at sunset at my location, a rare and amazing sight. As I realized what was going on, I rushed out quickly grabbing my old Olympus C2500L camera to witness and photograph this phenomenon...
